Answer: B) The costs were highly diffused while the benefits were very concentrated

Explanation: The American Recovery and Reinvestment act was enacted by congress and passed into law in 2009. The act which was aimed at alleviating the burden and promoting economic growth after the 2008 recession. It was meant to serve as a palliative or stimulus to aid economic recovery. The $7 million proposal earmarked to erect a bridge over the railway crossing was passed into law due to the fact that the benefits, relief and succor which the bridge provides to the over 168 Nebraskans coupled with the subsidized or diffused cost of putting the bridge in place were decisive factors towards acceptance of the proposal.

Serjik [45]

Answer:

intangible property

Explanation:

Intangible property can be defied as property that doesn't have any physical attributes that give them value. For example, a car is a tangible since you can drive it around, but a certificate of deposit is just a piece of paper (or even a computer code) and nothing else. The same applies to bonds and stocks, you know they are valuable but their value is not provided by their physical characteristics.

Other intangible property include patents, software, licenses, copyrights and trademarks. All of these can be extremely expensive, for example Microsoft is worth hundreds of billions and it sells digital ones and zeros.
